Ok, so i try to run GTA but it uses my Intel card and not my GTX 960, I dont know why, my Monitor is plugged into the jr ight port but its still not using it, i just dont know anymore, i cant get a refund anymore because i left it open on accident, if someone could tell me what to do, it would be great.

This could be solved with a simple google search.

1. Open Device Manager > Under Display adapters > you should see Intel HD Graphics and NVIDIA.

2. Right-click the blank space of the desktop. Select NVIDIA Control Panel to switch between two graphics manually under Manage 3D Settings > Preferred Graphics Processor.

This should solve the problem.

In that case, connect your monitor cable to your GPU instead of your motherboard. The programs should be forced to use the GPU.

Hmm, maybe you should uninstall GTA, reinstall it, then restart your computer, see if that works.
